A mobile communication device ( 102 ) receives information in a broadcast control channel ( 108 ) including a page message ( 108 ). The mobile communication device measures certain parameters ( 210 ) of the control channel, such as received signal strength, channel quality, and the present automatic gain setting. These parameters are scored and weighted ( 300 ) to produce a signal quality metric ( 314 ) to determine the duration of time the mobile communication device can remain in a low power state to conserve battery charge before checking for page alert message in the broadcast control channel next. |
